Why are my Canon Digital Camera photos too dark?
If your subject is underexposed (too dark), it might be due to insufficient light. Try setting the flash on. If the subject is darker than its surroundings, adjust the exposure compensation to a positive value or use the spot metering function. Also, ensure the subject is within the flash range, not exceeding 2 m (6.7 ft.), or raise the ISO speed.
Why are my Canon PowerShot A310 photos too bright?
If your subject appears overexposed (too bright), it could be because the subject is too close to the flash; keep a distance of at least 20 cm (7.9 in.). If the subject is brighter than the surroundings, set the exposure compensation to a negative value or use the spot metering function. Adjust the camera angle if light is shining or reflecting into the camera. Also, ensure the flash mode isn't set to always fire.
Why can't I play back images on my Canon PowerShot A310?
You might not be able to play back images if they were shot with another camera or edited on a computer. Computer images can be added to the camera using ZoomBrowser EX or ImageBrowser software. Also, ensure the file name and location match the camera's file format/structure.
